Sounds like you want to do collaborative editing ;-)

So - I would -strongly- recommend not doing this via the UNO API.
Instead - I would hack the C++ natively, for each component - and hook
out the changes you want. For writer I'd start prodding at the methods
in:
sw/inc/IDocumentContentOperations.hxx
and reading around their implementation; though it really rather
depends on what you're trying to achieve.

Again; sitting behind the UNO barrier is only going to cause immense
grief, and you'll end up having to fix and expand the implementation
there anyway.
Anyhow - can you give more details on the feature you're interested
in ? :-)
ATB,
Michael.
